-Chapter 17-

"Noona!" A voice made Ji-Hyeon startled and sat up. A blurred figure dashed into the nurse's office and immediately pulled her in an embrace. "Noona, I heard what happened from Jin hyung. Are you alright?" Jungkook asked while still hugging her. Ji-Hyeon searched for her glasses and put them on once found. She couldn't help but to smile at her brother's worried state. Just then another six boys walked in. Ji-Hyeon was not sure if it was because she just woke up or because of the light from the door behind them, but at that moment they really looked like the handsome boys who rule the school.

"Jungkook, your noona did not die. You're being too over dramatic," Jimin said as the group stood beside her. Ji-Hyeon couldn't help but to laught at that comment. 'These guys, they can make a meeting with the president seem like a funny matter,' she thought. "I got your stuff Ji-Hyeon," Yoongi said as he gently put her bag on the bed at her feet.

"I'm fine Jungkook. I'm okay," Ji-Hyeon answered her little brother with a pat on his head. "Even my clothes are dry. Well, a bit," she added as she looked at her brother in his eyes. Jungkook looked unassured. Ji-Hyeon just stood up and took her blazer which she hung up to dry. "And this one is still well damp," she said, mostly to herself. In her head she has been thinking of ways to beat the cold when walking home.

"Wear mine noona!" Jungkook said as he handed her his blazer. Ji-Hyeon's heart warmed at her brother's little gesture as she wore it. "Thanks Jungkookie. I'll make you hot chocolate when we arrived home okay?" she said with a smile.

"Assa! Hot chocolate!" he said as he skipped out of the door. Ji-Hyeon couldn't help but to shake her head at her brother's behaviour. "If you'll be making hot chocolate, we'll be inviting ourselves to your hourse, Ji-Hyeon," said Taehyung as he gave her his dorky smile, while walking out of the nurse's office with the whole group.

"Yah Taehyung," Namjoon said as he smacked Taehyung behind his head. "Don't you remember what just happened to her? She must want to rest," he added. Taehyung just looked towards his friends with the dorky smile of his never wiped off his face.

"I don't mind if you guys want to come. I make the best hot chololate. You guys haven't tasted it yet right?" Ji-Hyeon said as she gave them a huge smile. Just like Jungkook, her eyes will wrinkle when she genuinely smile. Jin just looked at them from behind. As much as he wanted to just go home to let Ji-Hyeon rest, the other guys are already extremely excited by the fact that Ji-Hyeon will be making them something.

As the group walked out of the school gate, Shoo could be seen in the car, glaring at Ji-Hyeon which stopped her in the middle of the road. The other guys saw where Ji-Hyeon was looking and thanks to Hoseok who gently pulled her, she started to walk again. "Don't mind her. She's obnoxious that girl," Hoseok said when they were well away from her car.

"Hey guys, thanks for being my friend you know. I really appreciate it. You know you could just brust past me anytime right?" Ji-Hyeon suddenly said. All the boys stopped in their tracks to look at her. "Ouh Ji-Hyeon! Stop with the touchy sentimental remarks will ya? I got goosebumps, seriously," Jimin said. All of them just laughed it off, continuing their way. As usual, the walk was full of laughs and lame jokes.

"Okay guys can you just wait by the living room a bit? I need to change," Ji-Hyeon said as they arrived at her house. Just as she took off her shoes, she went into the kitchen to boil water in the kettle and walked upstairs to change. The other boys literally dropped their bags on the floor and chatted away while waiting for Ji-Hyeon.

"Don't you think what Shoo did was a bit extreme today?" Yoongi asked.

"We never knew what she was able to do before right? Well we actually never did befriended anyone else before Ji-Hyeon came," Hoseok answered. "Woah Hoseok, since when do you answer these type of questions logically?" Namjoon asked from beside him followed by laughter fron the other guys. Hoseok just gave him the face of utter disbelief.

At that time Ji-Hyeon got changed into a loose pair of jeans and grey pullover and head straight back into the kitchen. She took out eight mugs and put them on the kitchen counter. Just as she did that, she took out the cocoa powder and milk and started making hot chocolate for the guys. "Do you need any help Ji-Hyeon?" Jin asked as he walked into the kitchen, rolling the sleeves of his shirt.

"There's nothing much to help actually Jin. It's just hot chocolate," she answered without looking at him as she spooned the exact cocoa powder needed for each mug. "But I may need help in serving though," she said as she flashed a smile towards Jin, her face almost blushed as she quickly turned back her attention. Jin was just standing there, still in his school uniform but without his blazer, sleeves rolled up to his elbow while leaning his back towards the kitchen counter with his hands crossed across his chest.

"You know Ji-Hyeon, you need to let your hair down often," he made a remark out of the blue. "Hyung, we can hear that from here," Taehyung from the living room. Ji-Hyeon could feel her cheeks burn a bit as she finished the last mug of hot chocolate. Jin just shook his head as he took the mugs and put them on a small tray to serve. Ji-Hyeon took the last two mugs and followed Jin to the living room. Ji-Hyeon could see the guys stiffled their laughter. "Yah guys, these drinks are hot. Don't make me splash it on you guys. Such a waste of good hot chocolate," she said as she gave the other mug she's holding to Jungkook.

"Uwa. Ji-Hyeon, you can open up a cafe with this hot chocolate, no kidding!" Yoongi said as he took a sip. "I agree! Wah. And the weather outside is cold too. This is just nice!" Jimin added. As the temperature outside began to slowly drop indicating the presence of fall, the eight youngsters were warm with a mug of hot chocolate each.
